Introduction
This page outlines the current expectations for the body of work of staff and interns in the Profiles program.Expectations
| Experienced Staff | Experienced Intern | |
| Full Profile Research – bio, experience, education, add.bio, addresses tabs in admin | 25-30 per day (20-25 minutes per politician) | 25 per week (20-25 minutes per politician) |
| Full Roster Checks – includes all data in offices (office, dates, district, party, committees, leadership) and addresses tabs in admin | 90 per day (5 minutes per politician) | 120 per week (5 minutes per politician) |
| Committee Sweep - Committee roster, name, and activity checks and experience creation for inactive members | 30-35 per day (10-15 minutes per committee) | 30 per week (15 minutes per committee) |
| Contact Information – physical and web addresses | 60-90 per day (5-10 minutes per politician) | 120-180 per week (5-10 minutes per politician) |
Staff Expectations: These expectations are based on how much experienced researchers focusing solely on research are completing in an 8 hour work day. Other responsibilities for staff (intern supervision, QC, meetings) can take away from this dedicated research time. An experienced staff member can be defined as a staff member past the 6 month mark.
Intern Expectations: These expectations are based on a fully-trained intern (post-midterm evaluation) and total numbers are based on the standard intern work schedule of 10 hours per week. An experienced intern can be defined as an intern past the mid-term evaluation (approx. 5-7 weeks).
All Staff/Interns: These numbers can be cross-referenced to the Profiles Daily Work Tracking document to review current and previous research output with the set target metrics outlined above. Research productivity will vary significantly by state and office level for all research areas.
